Thank you so much! 😁

We lucked out and got some love from some great streamers like Stumpt, Atlas Anarchy, Blazekin, and some others. All organically through promoting the game at places like PAX and LA Comicon.

But since a good amount of that attention was before we launched, it mostly translated to wishlists. (Which certainly still helps).

Regardless, BOTH wishlists and reviews do amazing for us - so if you enjoy the "First Page" demo, let us know! 🙂

And thanks again!

Thank you so much! Very proud of what we've made, as we made it exactly for people like you! 🙂 Hope you enjoy and thanks for sharing the link!

Awesome! Thank you so much! We love the support! And I'm sure you'll both get a kick out of it 😁

I literally made an indie game to fill in this gap. It's local coop and was designed for kids and parents to play together.

It's called:

INK INSIDE (PC now, all consoles soon)

Brain David Gilbert voices the lead: Stick the stick figure. The whole cast are children's drawings come to life living in a kids notebook that's getting corrupted by a slow leak dripping water into their world and warping them into "sog" monsters.

It's a game based on a lost pilot to a Nickelodeon show, and as such is both a cartoon and action RPG with a narrative that follows the first season of what you used to see on Saturday Morning.

It's pretty much what you're looking for imo, but since we're indie, marketing has not been treating us well 😅

Reception from our intended younger audience has been glowing. Just harder to sell to kids as they don't have money 😑

Worse than that - they're trying to tell us what we can spend our money on.

Which according to the horse shit Citizens United ruling is free speech for corporations. But not the people in em I guess.

2013-02-27 is also unambiguous.

Hey what's today's date?

It's 2025 -

No like the DAY?

Yeah, it's 2025, 02 -

Not the month, the day - What's today's actual date?

Like I was saying, if you'd let me finish, "2025 - 02 - 27"

I'm mostly joking, but when it comes to info about dates, I think the most evctive format it one that organizes the information within a heirachy that provides follow up answers.

Formatting dates as day / month / year does just that. Provides the day it is, followed by the month and year as that is the order that information is usually needed in.

I find providing the year first (or month) is much more ambiguous as neither are the day the actual date falls on.

Nothing says MAGA like taking the highground over a kid dying of terminal cancer. Your prioties are just as fucking awful as the people you vote for.

Buddha wants a "peace" of pizza.

Fasting grampa wants his life to matter, so feeds himself to Tiger instead of just bringing in another food source. Tiger gives no shits. But Grandpa lovers think his sacrifice was beautiful instead of unnecessary.

Not the Buddhist teaching. But my interpretation.

And one MAGA supporters should definitley read.

The level of short sightedness in this pursuit is laughable, even if it's coming from corporate.

You pirated a song?

Well then, we're going to cut off your internet so that we can never effectively market anything we make to you ever again.

We'll gladly lose out on all the revenue you normally spend on corporate movies, tech, and content because we'd rather hyper fixate on the pennies of lost revenue that mp3 cost us, than ever worry about the macro economic conditions of the real people it comes from.

Fucking LOL.

Well said!

Agreed. But it's easier to explain to American Christians they are fully practicing a second religion with MAGA, rather than convince them all religions are crap.

Oh sure. Not hard at all.

But what's he's been lying about is:

-Everyone in politics sucks but me. -I'm the best at everything. -Dems are horrible. -Republicans that aren't loyal are horrible too.

These lies have made him literally the only necessary component of MAGA by default.

Russia unquestionably used this to their advantage, but a campaign built on lies still remains weak if theres only one person those lies are centered around.

If Trump isn't around to "compare" democrats to, it'll be pretty obvious he's lying about them. Even more so when the GOP realizes not a single other slime ball in his swamp has the reality TV experience or fast food charisma Trump does to keep his audiences engaged with endless bullshit.

Good thing their MAGA religion is made up. And while 100% they do think Trump is Jesus, he isn't coming back from the dead. If anything, assassinating him would implode the GOP as it's entire structure is now accupied by complete imbeciles who just copy Trump. No Trump, nothing left to copy.

That's the thing about Fascism - it's always just populism. Aka vote for popular guy, and do what he says.

Hell most neo Nazis still have a boner for Hitler despite him not being around. The best they can do is convince themselves Trump is just like their fave Fascism daddy.

Populism is weak, because it always rests on the popularity of one guy. Trump is that guy, and once he's gone so is his populism.

Would be hilarious if his fans did him in thinking he'd be coming back from a cave on Easter, instead of shattering the entirety of the GOP for a generation. Without Trump, they don't know what they're doing, and they seem very eager to find that out the hard way.

Starting to, yes. But they at least still adhere to their political ideologies, instead of replacing them fully with the devout religious worship of a geriatric conman.

Is it an arrest if there's no due process though? Honest question. What are they arresting him for that would ever see trial? What crime was he even claimed of committing for an arrest?

Because if there's no trial, then there's no due process. Andnif there's no due process, then it's not an arrest, it's a kidnapping.

In which case he should be punching those fucks in the face.

That's almost 30% lower my dude. Which is quite a lot.

Courts ARE slow! And that's the loop hole people with shit loads of money use to make sure they are never punished.

They just Lawyer up with the most expensive ones they can find, then ask them every way they can contest the court. Then they pay to contest it.

Often waiting years for sentencing. Where in that time they get the laws changed and make favors so when you are sentenced, it's a get out of jail free card.

Sometimes the Epstein way. Who ran a child porn and trafficking empire for decades and never served justice, nor will any of his clients.

Courts will remain slow as long as those who are paid most are great at slowing things down for their clients.

Like a President with 34 felonies and no sentencing. Or the same president committing the largest single national security breach in all of American history and will never see trial.

I want to believe in our court system. Because it was nice to feel like Justice was neutral and fair.

But over the last 2 decades I've seen dumptrucks of crime dissolve American society, and little to no punishment from a court too slow to fight all the money evil people now have.

In 2008, there was a financial crisis that the media says was handled well. Except the system that was to be put in place to monitor fruad, the CAT system, has had its implementation delayed until 2024. When it started to finally, finally be used to monitor tlfinancial errors. And there were billions.

Then the Trump admin delayed it's necessity until 2027.

19 years later. A fix for the problem in Wallstreet from 2008. In that time, they just got better at hiding what they're doing. And now it's another house of cards that Trumps too much of an idiot to keep standing.

That's not justice. That's a joke.

Still waiting.

Clowns like you are pretty funny. Especially when they laugh at themselves being the punchline. Really curious how long it's gonna take you to realize it.
